ENGLISH IRIS 
The coloring of these magnificent bulbous Iris 
is more sumptuous than most of the Orchids, and 
much more useful as cut flowers. Being perfectly 
hardy they may be used freely in the garden. They 
flower rather late in the spring, usually about the 
first of July. 
CHOICE MIXTURE OF ENGLISH IRIS. $1.90 
per doz.: $7.75 per 100. 
AUTUMN-FLOWERING CROCUS 
(COLCHICUM) 
Planted in the garden the Colchicum flowers 
in September and the flowers are from three to 
four times the size of the Spring Flowering Crocus. 
The bulbs will bloom in the house in September, 
without being planted or without water, and after- 
wards, in November, may be planted in the garden 
to bloom next fall. 
COLCHICUM AUTUMNALE ALBA. Pure 
white. 45c each; $5.50 per doz. 
COLCHICUM GIGANTEUM. Soft lilac, white 
center. 65c each; $6.25 per doz. 
SPRING STAR FLOWER 
(TRITELEIA UNIFLORA VIOLACEA) 
This charming spring-flowering bulb is almost 
unknown in this country but we know of nothing 
lovelier. Whenever it has been planted its bloom- 
ing has always been a joy and a delight to the 
planter. It should always be planted where it can 
remain permanently and if possible in a rather 
moist soil. Besides, the Spring Star Flower may 
be bloomed in the house with the same treatment 
that is recommended for Hyacinths. It produces 
myriads of star-like flowers and a beautiful foliage 
which covers the ground like a carpet. Unques- 
tionably one of the choicest of the hardy bulbs. 
The flowers are colored beautiful violet. 98c per 
doz.; $5.55 per 100. 
Giant Hybrid Amaryllis 
TENDER BULBS

as steel, and every landscape is bleak and barren, 
the gorgeous Amaryllis will fill your home with 
luxuriant tropical beauty.

cheerlessness of winter. Large, Lily-like blooms— 
beautifully formed and colored—a color range of 
reds, rose, crimson, scarlet, cherry, and maroon. 
And so amazingly easy to grow. 
Each plant will average 4 big flowers, measuring 
from 6 to 8 inches in diameter. Occasionally one 
bulb will produce two stems with blooms, and often 
a stem will have 5 to 6 flowers. Mixed colors only 
furnished. Not available in separate colors. Each, 
75c; 3 for $2.00; $7.50 per doz.

GLORY-OF-THE-SUN 
(Leucocoryne Ixioides Odorata) 
A new bulbous plant recently discovered in Peru 
and altogether the loveliest plant for winter bloom- 
ing in existence. The bulbs should be planted five 
or six in a pot and they will bloom from about the 
middle of February on. The bulbs are tender and 
may not be used for the garden where there is freez- 
ing. When the plant blooms it develops flower 
stems about 15 inches tall, crowned with clusters of 
exquisite light blue flowers like those illustrated on 
page 12. 80c for 3; $2.25 per doz.; $15.00 per 100.
